Over a year since I last posted about my drunken nights, insane friends and my unconditional love for food. So what's changed? A lot... or so it feels. My relationship with food hasn't really changed much, apart from me realising that the uncountable amount of takeaways and mammoth sized portions do actually now affect how much I weigh, or so people have told me. But it's okay, I'm on it, the summers here and the salads are slowly making their appearance in my kitchen. One thing I know that has happened since I last blogged is I've outgrown a lot of things. Firstly I no longer am obsessed with reality TV programmes such as geordie shore, the valleys etc (mic is clearly an exception in this sentence). I feel a lot less uptight and angry than I have done in most of my life. I'll avoid disputes in any way possible, I don't see the need or point of petty arguments when it can achieve nothing but unhappiness. I've begun to believe in my career a lot more. Although my grades haven't been of the same standard as a lot of people in my course this year, it doesn't really bother me any more. Working in education requires more practical qualities than wanting a 4000 word assignment on theories that only a handful of people have heard of. That's why I'm sticking this course out and proving that you don't have to have amazing academic skills to be a teacher. I'd say I have also become a lot more mature with my drinking, minus the odd night out with my best friend where limits are forgotten. I drink probably twice a week now I'm on summer break which will hopefully help to loose some of these unwanted pounds. Me and Jaz are still going strong. In a way she's my rock. More of a sister than a friend, and I don't mean that in a kind of annoying teenager BFF way. She's there for me when I need her the most, and I can't say that about many friends I've had in my life.
New chapters. I've met quite a few people this year who I am more than happy to call my friends. People I work with, friends of friends, friends of friends of friends and I have,embarrassingly, met someone. I am however still a very much private person so I won't talk about that subject to avoid myself and others cringing.
I now have a pet, by pet I mean fish that hides all day. Probably the most boring animal possible, but he was my sisters and now he's mine and I wouldn't trade him. He's my little piece of home. I still miss my family a great amount and wish I could see them more. I'm at the stage in my life where most of my free time is spent meeting people I enjoy spending time with, buying things I actually need or planning what I'm going to do the next time I get a day off. Being 21 hasn't really changed anything. Age is just a number. It's the moving house, saying goodbye to close friends, being a part from the people you love which make you realise how old you are.
I still like to say that I live with no regrets and that I'll carry on life with the same motto because in all honestly I have met people that treat tomorrow like it's their last day, people that have 100000 problems and still always manage to smile, people that really appreciate life. Every one has their bad days but don't let today ruin tomorrow. 'Forget yesterday as it's already forgotten you'
